I had a great Thanksgiving. It ended up being my DH, FIL, and mom. The rest of our family couldn't make it, but that's all right. I got to spend Wednesday night cooking with my mom. We both learned a lot from each other. She taught me how to cook, and she says I've passed her up..haha. We made so much food for 4 people, but hey, we had lots of leftovers. I made my own stuffing recipe, and turkey gravy that will be "my" way from here on out.

I used homemade cornbread for the stuffing, and roasted turkey thighs for the stock for the gravy. I even made pumpkin pie completely from scratch, real pumpkins! DH even cooked! He smoked a ham on the grill that was AMAZING! He served it with grilled pineapple. Over all, it was an awesome day, I couldn't ask for anything better!

It was pretty much horrible. SIL's only contribution was putting ice in the glasses. Everyone left and my husband and I had the whole shibang to clean up by ourselves with 2 small kids. Oh well, I'm waiting on all the Christmas goodies now!!!
